I've been eyeballing Prada Amber Pour Homme Intense for a while now. It seems to work pretty well on me. Should I snatch up a big bottle of that, or the big bottle with the atomizer? Or, based on what I already own, are there some other things I should try?

Re: So I got a gift card for Christmas.......

Among my favorites at Macys are Aramis 900 (resinous spicy and patchouli) and Tuscany (herbal). Recently, there are also the Cuir flankers to the Mugler line, especially Angel Cuir, which is quite masculine and robust.

Re: So I got a gift card for Christmas.......

sell the gift card and use the money to buy the fragrances online for half the price

as for suggestions to youre already impressive collection:
one million, la nuit, midnight in paris, new haarlem

I don't really want to go through the hassle of selling the gift card. As far as your suggestions, I have sniffed out Midnight in Paris. I liked it a lot. But, I don't think they sell it at Macy's. What do you think about the Amber Pour Homme Intense?

Sorry for the double posted threads guys.Can the Moderator please merge the two?

Re: So I got a gift card for Christmas.......

I've noticed Macy's has a lot of variance as far as how much they stock in the way of fragrances. The one near my house only has a hand full of the top selling fragrances around a small kiosk. The Macy's just 25 miles north has what seems to be an entire floor of fragrances/makeup spread out, including a lot of older type designer fragrances (E.g. Aramis and its many iterations). So there's that.

As far as your other question I am talking about Angel Men Pure Leather, not to be mistaken with any of the women's versions. You can verify on the Mugler site. It's definitely a try before you buy.

Re: So I got a gift card for Christmas.......

Some Macy's carry the whole Aramis line, some only the regular Aramis and the inferior new Aramis Gentleman. So it depends.

Pure leather and Angel Cuir are different frags. I think pure leather is A*Men with a touch of leather. Angel Parfums du Cuir, theoretically, is Angel (for women) with leather, but in fact it comes off as a nice rich leather, deep with woods and patch, sweetish but not particularly gourmand. To me, both are excellent, but pure leather seems very close to A*Men, of which you have already two variations, while Angel Cuir would be a bit different.

Re: So I got a gift card for Christmas.......

I agree with the 1 Million suggestion. It's a nice one, in spite of getting bashed quite a bit here.
It is like the *only* sorta sweet scent that I enjoy. And people claim it is "too common," and "everyone's wearing it."
I have yet to smell it on anyone, anywhere. But that could be because I don't go to clubs and such.

Re: So I got a gift card for Christmas.......

So I got home and realized, I also have Must de Cartier, Cartier Declaration, and CK One Shock to add to the list of what I own. Now with Dior Homme, would it be better for me to try to snag the vintage juice from Sephora, or snatch up the current form at Macy's if they have it?

The vintage Dior Homme has been long gone from Sephora's in my neck of the woods. Honestly, I wouldn't bother going out of your way to get the vintage. The reformulation is very nice and unless iris is your favorite note the reform outperforms the vintage.

Thanks for the heads up! Tonight is the night. I'm going to drop by my Macy's after work and we'll see what I come out with. Thanks to everyone for your input.
